For TS, frequency is complex along the reaction coordinate. Along the all other modes, freq. is real

Planar Ammonia at HF/STO-3G level: Compute the frequencies, and characterise the normal
modes and their frequencies.
Explain why one of the normal modes have imaginary frequency.
What does motion along the normal mode indicate?
Hint: create an z-matrix for planar ammonia. Use z-matrix input and optimize the structure of planar ammonia. By specifying the value of an internal coordinate within the z-mat will constrain the structure to that value. You may fix angles (120deg.) and t o r s i o n s ( 1 8 0 d e g . ) d u r i n g optimisation.

In multi-dimensions:
Hessian gradient
BFGS Method (Quasi-Newton methods): Here H is not computed explicitly!Make an initial guess of H
Keeps on improving this by appropriate update based on gradients.
Based on the change in energy, one can on-the-fly compute appropriate c
BFGS is also usually done together with line-search method to improve the efficiency
Newton-Raphson
Hessian computation: usually numerical but is computationally expensive!

Local minima and global minima on PES can occur like above.
Standard optimizations algorithms find the local minimum, which may not be the true global minimum. Thus different
starting structures may be experimented.
